Around the World Toys — Local services in Frisco

This is a beautiful toy store, but I suggest never bringing children in it. We dropped into this store on a quiet week day with our two young girls to let them each pick out a toy. We have a 2.5 year old with special needs as well as a 9 month old. Our two year was ecstatic as soon as she walked in to see so many toys! We allowed her to pick out several and then were planning to narrow it down once she had a chance to explore a bit. She was looking at several boxed toys while sitting on the ground as she does not understand when asked to leave things on the shelf, when the woman working at the store walked by scowling scoffing and visibly upset at our daughter. Both my husband and I noticed, but were hoping to allow our daughter to still make her selection because this would have been the highlight of her visit in Frisco. Several seconds later, the woman walked by and said in a fed up tone “you need to pick the toys up off of the floor, I only vacuum once a week!” My husband was taken back by this and decided to take my two year old outside since it would be impossible to keep her from sitting on the floor to look at items. She screamed for 20 minutes following, which I can’t blame her… she had done nothing wrong, yet didn’t get to pick a toy. I chose to still pick something for her and check out. After checking out I voiced my concerns to the woman working stating that we were not trying to damage any toys by setting them on the floor and that my daughter has special needs and this is the only way she understands how to look at them. I was countered with unwanted parenting advice from the woman who stated “well maybe next time you should just give her two options.” This experience really brought a negative light to our visit in Frisco. We don’t get to travel often, as our special needs daughter has frequent appointments and daily therapies. I would suggest to the woman who was working today, that if watching children look at and play with toys upsets her, then working at a toy store may not be the gig for her. My husband returned the toy after we left the store (our daughter was still too upset to enjoy it) and we purchased a toy at another...

do not go here the owner of this store is an older woman who is extremely rude. me and my cousins were walking around quietly in the store and she was following us around watching us and staring at us creepily. we had been in there one time before that day and a one time before that week and she said oh so you're back again in a rude tone and we were like yea and she said so are you looking for anything specific or not and we were like no we're just looking and she said well then you're wasting your time here and then later she sarcastically said did you have fun playing with the toys that your parents bought you and we didn't know what to say because it was so uncalled for and after one of my cousins bought a book she said it's time for you to leave im closing early. we left after doing nothing but quietly walking around the store respectfully and then she didn't even...

I love this toy store and I don’t have any kids. I shop here for friends and family’s children. It is great for all ages. The selection is curated so it’s the best and newest options. The owner and her daughter are usually working and are very friendly and helpful. The best part of the purchasing gifts here is they offer to gift wrap it for you! Highly recommend. The Stork and Bear shop is right next door but it’s connected on the inside. It’s the clothing side. They have a lot of cute...
